Pressure Assisted Toilets Provide Greater "Flushing Power"

Your home probably contains traditional toilets that depend largely on gravity and the suction generated when flushing to remove waste. A pressure assisted toilet makes use of compressed air to provide the flushing power, creating a stronger flush while requiring less water in the process. Leading Central PA residential plumbing contractor Haller Enterprises offers an array of "green" products including pressure assisted toilets that reduce water consumption and save you money on your utility bills.

Pressure Assisted Toilet Flushing Process

When you lift the tank lid of a traditional gravity toilet, you'll discover the tank is filled with water. When you remove a pressure assisted tank lid, you'll see a smaller sealed inner tank. Instead of holding water, the tank contains compressed air instead. Water is fed to the tank from a water line. When you flush the toilet, the compressed air inside the sealed tank forces highly pressurized water into the bowl, which removes waste and cleans the bowl more efficiently. Pressure assisted toilets are characterized by a rather loud "whooshing" sound when flushed.
